Our Mission

What does it mean to the Creative Smiles team to say we are dedicated to quality dental services and compassionate care? It means we take time to answer every patient question, ensuring you are 100% confident in treatment planning decisions. It means we carefully explain oral health concerns, potential treatment options, and differences in cost, longevity, and cosmetic appeal. It means we carefully learn the latest techniques and technologies in dentistry and work to incorporate these into our office if and when we’re sure they will improve patient care. Each of our dentists and team members complete more than the required number of continuing education hours each year to stay at dentistry’s cutting-edge. Finally, our dedication means we value each and every one of our patients, and we take the time to establish lasting relationships with them founded on trust and respect. We want every patient to feel so confident in our abilities that they will refer us to their friends and family members without hesitation.

What Patients Are Saying

“Had a lovely experience at Creative Smiles. Friendly staff that values service and high quality of care. In particular, I valued the staff's focus on explaining WHY they were doing WHAT they were doing. They answered all of my questions well & weren't quick to recommend unnecessary services/treatments. I really appreciated their care. & would highly recommend.”
Dustin J. Clintonville, OH

“I am so grateful to have Creative Smiles as my dental team. They are very kind and truly get to know you as an individual- not just as a patient sitting in the chair. The team is always consistent and you have appointments that are timely and professional. I have not had to wait in the waiting room and follow-up appointments are scheduled within a week or two vs months away.”
Amy P. Worthington, OH

Featured Services

Completely Custom Crowns in a Single Visit

Technology has transformed every aspect of dental care from diagnostics and preventive checkups to smile makeover planning and restorative dentistry services. Same-day dental restorations using the E4D computer-assisted design and manufacture system allow us to provide patients better quality crowns and that are much more convenient. No need to schedule multiple appointments or place and remove temporary restorations. Just come to our team with a damaged tooth and leave the very same day with a flawless smile.

Preventive Dental Care for the Whole Family

Are you tired of scheduling multiple appointments at a number of different offices for your family? Have you gone through the stress of transferring one of your children from a pediatric dentist to an adult dental practice? At Creative Smiles, we are dedicated to helping patients at every age and stage of dental development maintain their healthiest smiles. We are happy to schedule family checkups on the same day for your convenience, and we have early morning and late afternoon appointments available.

Achieve Your Dream Smile with Cosmetic Dentistry

Don’t settle for a less than perfect smile. We offer comprehensive cosmetic dentistry services that help patients achieve the picture-perfect teeth of their dreams. Brighter, straighter, and more evenly spaced smiles are all within reach. If you’ve always wanted a smile that looks more like your favorite celebrity, bring a picture along for a cosmetic dentistry consultation. We partner with patients to transform even the most flawed teeth into beautiful smiles.

Take Back Control of Your Life with Sleep Apnea Therapy

Do you snore loudly every night? Frequently wake with a headache or sore throat? Feel exhausted, no matter how much sleep you get at night? You may be suffering from obstructive sleep apnea disorder (OSA). One of the most common sleep problems in the US, sleep apnea causes patients to stop breathing for ten or more seconds at a time throughout the night. CPAP is the traditional treatment, but many patients achieve effective relief with comfortable, portable oral appliance therapy.

Replace Missing Teeth with Dental Implants

Ever heard the phrase, “that’s just the tip of the iceberg?” The bulk of the structure of an iceberg is below the surface of the water. The same is true for teeth. The crowns visible above the gum line are only a fraction of dental structure. The rest is located below the gums. Traditional tooth replacement only restores the visible portions of teeth, but dental implants replace the lost root structure for increased stability and quality that can last a lifetime.

A Straighter, More Confident You with ClearCorrect™ Braces

If you’ve always wanted straighter teeth but the appearance of traditional braces, time commitment, or discomfort associated with bracket and wire orthodontics has kept you away—the ClearCorrect™ alignment tray system may be the right solution for you. Using a series of clear plastic aligners, ClearCorrect™ places gentle pressure on teeth, shifting them into ideal alignment in just about a year. No need to change your diet, oral hygiene routine, or schedule numerous, lengthy orthodontist visits.

Insurance Accepted Financing Available

Don’t hesitate to ask our team about insurance and financing. We’re happy to process and file claims for any insurance plan, and we are in-network providers for many of the major PPO plans. We also work with CareCredit to provide affordable monthly financing.
